Cheers Decky 😀 Someone else got back to me with another different part no so mate checking his later

That he’d part with 😜??

Asking for a mate on off chance has a good or new inlet manifold for a 1970 1200 bug and would post up north 👍

He’s open to offers on this to get it sold

Few more pics

Posting on behalf of a good mate. He bought this bus as a project at least 15 years ago. Approx 10years ago the bus had all welding done,brand new doors, steps, rear hatch etc along with all seals. Full respray. Unfortunatley health issues meant the project was put into storage for a few years...

Few pics from yesterday

Mate got back to me. It’s not the same guy / yard. One of the vans was very familiar looking.

I checked his history, has had 7 or 8 other splits and bays for sale there between imports and UK regd. There was a guy outside Enniskillen always had loads of South African stuff for sale but I don’t think it’s him. Edit: actually I looked through the other ads and it could be him, know a guy...

I don’t but price in sterling and name is Maguire so high possibly it’s in Fermanagh 😂. Very cheap bus!

That looks alright other than the damage

I’ve never seen that wee carbon person but think I remember seeing it for sale before possibly in Fermanagh auction. Looks like a decent wee car. Couple in co Laois too, at least one Irish reg https://www.donedeal.ie/vintagecars-for-sale/vw-beetles/36610734

Plate be worth up to £1000. Not only would it be a sin to remove it, but it would devalue the van. Not a huge amount on original northern plate buses left!

No nonsense wee car that looks unrestored and used 😎
